Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x-2)=3x+4(x+1)

First, multiply the 5 with the x and the 5 with the -2. You are using the distributive property.

5x -10 = 3x + 4 (x+1)

Then multiply the 4 with the x and the 4 with the 1 on the other side. Again, you are using the distributive property.

5x-10=3x+4x+4

Next, combine like terms. So you're going to combine the 3x and the 4x on the right side.

5x-10=7x+4

Then, subtract 5x from both sides. Also, subtract the 4 from both sides. You do this in order to get all of the x's on one side of the equation.

-14 = 2x

Finally, divide 2 from both sides. You do this because right now, the equation says 2 times x, and you need to get the x alone.

-7 = x

You are finished

What is the slope line that would be parallel to the given line???
Serjik [45]

Slope of a line parallel to given line is equal to slope of given line.

<u>SOLUTION:</u>

Given that, we have to find the slope of any line that is parallel to a line in the co – ordinate plane.

We know that, slope of a line is tan( angle  of a line made between that line and the x – axis)

So, consider two lines which are parallel , then, angles made by both the parallel lines will be equal with the x – axis.

Then, tan( angle by 1st line) = tan( angle by 2nd line)

Which means that, slope of two lines will be equal.

Hence, slope of a line parallel to given is equal to slope of given line.
